What started with 2G as a revolution in mobile communication, has now arrived in its latest avatar - 5G.

The next generation of technology has arrived 

As we watch more and more content online nowadays, we also have to tolerate the time lag, buffering and sudden pauses. This is especially annoying if you’re watching a movie or a match, where you don’t want to miss even a second of the fast-paced action.

5G is the next generation of mobile technology, and soon all the top 5G phones will be offering faster speeds and more reliable connections than ever before. As a result, more and more smartphone manufacturers are already  releasing 5G-enabled phones, giving consumers the ability to take advantage of this advanced technology.

Get faster speeds and better connectivity 

One of the main benefits of 5G phones is the faster download and upload speeds. With 5G, you can expect download speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second, which is up to 100 times faster than current 4G networks. This means you can download large files, stream high-definition videos, and enjoy online gaming, with virtually no lag or buffering. 

Premium brands are upgrading

In addition to faster speeds, all the premium 5G phones  also offer lower latency, which is the amount of time it takes for data to be transmitted from one point to another. Brands like Samsung, iPhone, RedMi, OnePlus and Oppo already have their models available, across price categories. 

With 5G, latency can be as low as 1 millisecond, which is significantly faster than current 4G networks. So now  you can experience real-time interactions, such as video calls and online gaming, with minimal delay.

Superior experience within your budget

As newer models of 5G phone launches are underway, there will be an upsurge in the availability of refurbished 5G phones as well. That means, in a few months from now you will be able to buy one of the top 5G phones, at 30% to 60% less. You too will be able to enjoy the same superior user experience, without unsettling your budget. 

Here’s what you can look forward to, in a new or refurbished 5G phone.

The ability to connect to more devices at once. With 5G, you can connect to thousands of devices within a single network, allowing for more efficient use of network resources. This means you can enjoy faster speeds and more reliable connections, even in crowded areas where there are many people using their phones at the same time.

The network is upgrading. How about you?

A 5G phone also offers improved reliability, with fewer dropped connections and better coverage, even in remote, difficult-to-reach areas. Whether your phone is brand new or refurbished, you can enjoy stronger signals, even in areas where 4G networks may be weak or non-existent. This means you can stay connected and enjoy uninterrupted access to the internet, no matter where you are. 

The pandemic has taught an entire generation of humans to work, study, learn and connect with each other from home. With a wider range, high speed technology and superior connectivity, the possibilities are endless. 

Do you have a 5G network where you live?

One of the biggest challenges with 5G phones is the availability of 5G networks. While many carriers are in the process of rolling out 5G networks, coverage is still limited, and it may be some time before 5G is widely available in all areas. However, as per some news reports, India is gearing up to ensure that most parts of the country will have 5G access and network in the coming year. 

Check before you spend

Since things are still in the process  of upgradation and transformation, it's important to check with your carrier to see if 5G service is already available in your area before purchasing a 5G phone. If you are uncertain, you can always invest in a refurbished 5G phone, and be future-ready so that you enjoy the fastest mobile technology as soon as it arrives in your neighbourhood.  Look up verified resellers of refurbished phones, check reviews and do the homework on the model you’re looking for.

The future is 5G

Overall, 5G phones offer a number of benefits, including faster speeds, lower latency, and improved reliability. While there are still challenges with the availability of 5G networks, the future looks bright for this exciting new technology. As 5G networks continue to expand and improve, more and more consumers will be able to take advantage of the benefits of 5G phones.

It’s time to be future ready. Are you ready to take the leap?
